Side-channel attacks are a major threat to the security of cryptographic implementations, particularly for small devices that are under the physical control of the adversary. While several strategies for protecting against side-channel…
Sharding has shown great potential to scale out blockchains. It divides nodes into smaller groups which allow for partial transaction processing, relaying and storage. Hence, instead of running one blockchain, we will run multiple…

Partitioning graphs into blocks of roughly equal size such that few edges run between blocks is a frequently needed operation in processing graphs. Recently, size, variety, and structural complexity of these networks has grown dramatically.…

Stepping-stone intrusions (SSIs) are a prevalent network evasion technique in which attackers route sessions through chains of compromised intermediate hosts to obscure their origin. Effective SSI detection requires correlating the incoming…

The cross--section for two--photon events with (at least) two independent partonic scatters is estimated, for LEP energies as well as a 500 GeV ``photon collider". This results in events with (at least) four central (mini--)jets. Such…
